The sapphire slowed her pace so she could keep stride with the rest of the group, and listened with her brows pulled together while PR spoke. It made sense to her why PR might not want to face her shattering, and she seemed to be telling the truth, but that still didn't explain this anomalous mind that the peridot possessed. There was something hidden beneath the surface, and the sapphire always felt a prickle down her nape when she knew there was something more to the story that wasn't being said.
From the gem's own words, PR wasn't able to control herself. Padparadscha began to second guess bringing the gem here, to the moonbase headquarters; the last time she had brought an uncontrolled gem here, and gave them the benefit of the doubt, they had gone loose and caused destruction in the hanger before being put down by guards. The sapphire didn't want to be responsible for another fiasco, but she also wanted PR to turn around and become a productive member of society.
"Hmm," She pressed her lips together as she contemplated the fact that PR felt she would be shattered for failing her missions multiple times, and the sapphire began to wonder,"Say, PR...have you always had trouble with self control? Have you been this way since you emerged?" She asked a sensitive question very pointedly, but she felt confident enough to do so while the gem was in restraints, and while her trusted comrade 3JJ was ready to act. The sapphire's large eyes peered over to the green gem as she walked, passing through the door of the hanger, into the busy hallway. "It's normal to feel scared when your superiors make such harsh judgments. Never fear, you're in Pink Diamond's jurisdiction now," She hoped that would encourage the gem to say more about her situation, therefore giving Padparadscha more data to make a sound decision from.
